Due to rampant abuse by alt accounts, the following changes are hereby made effective immediately:

1. New users must have at least 30 activity to participate.

It is very easy to make activity by posting, so there is no excuse to not achieve this.

Current users will stay inside the challenge.

2. New users must have made at least 50 posts before participating.

Again, this will not apply to current users.
